Chipset firm firms up its firmware

Via disclosed more details of its roadmap plans at a conference in Silicon Valley held earlier this week. At the Platform 99 conference, the Taiwanese company confirmed that it was supporting PC133 and AGP4x for the Athlon K7 processor. Earlier this year, we reported from Computex that such a chipset was on the way.
